HPTLC Densitometric Quantification of Glycyrrhizin,Glycyrrhetinic Acid,Apigenin, Kaempferol and Quercetin from Glycyrrhiza glabra

Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn., commonly known as liquorice, is a reputed drug of Ayurveda. In the present work we developed and validated densitometric methods for quantification of glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhetinic acid, apigenin, kaempferol and quercetin using HPTLC. The developed methods were found to be precise and accurate. The amount of glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhetinic acid, and quercetin was found to be 1.070, 0.84 and 0.271% w/w, respectively. Apigenin and kaempferol were quantified in free (0.007 and 0.033% w/w) as well as bound (0.021 and 0.074% w/w) forms. This is the first report of simultaneous quantification of glycyrrhetinic acid and apigenin as well as kaempferol and quercetin from G. glabra. Furthermore, no TLC densitometric methods have been reported for the quantification of apigenin, kaempferol and quercetin from G. glabra.

Simultaneous Determination of Quercetin, Rutin and Coumaric Acid in Flowers of Rhododendron arboreum by HPTLC1

A simple and fast method was developed for simultaneous quantitative determination of three biologically active phenolic compounds i.e. quercetin, rutin and coumaric acid in flowers of Rhododendron arboreum using high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC). The separation was performed on TLC aluminium plates precoated with silica gel RP-18 F_254S. Good separation was achieved in the mobile phase of methanol-water-formic acid (40:57:3, v/v/v) and densitometric determination of these compounds was carried out at 280 nm in reflectance/absorbance mode. The linear regression data for the calibration plots showed a good linear relationship with r = 0.9971, 0.9953 and 0.9960 for quercetin, rutin and coumaric acid, respectively. Accuracy of the method was checked by recovery study conducted at two different levels with the average recovery of 99.90%, 99.02% and 99.16% for quercetin, rutin and coumaric acid, respectively. The present method is being reported first time and may be used for routine quality control of the flowers of R. arboreum.

Determination of Rutin in Amaryllis belladonna L. Flowers by HPTLC and Spectrophotometry

The work presented in this paper demonstrates the use of HPTLC-UV to quantify rutin in the alcoholic extract of Amaryllis belladonna L. (Family Amaryllidaceaea) flowers which was detected, isolated and identified in previous work. The results obtained by HPTLC showed excellent accuracy and precision when compared to the spectrophotometric method.

TLC Densitometric Method for the Quantification of Eugenol and Gallic Acid in Clove

Eugenol and gallic acid are reported from the flower buds of Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr. & Perry (clove). Both the compounds have been shown to give interesting biological activities and hence serve as biomarkers. We report a simple TLC densitometric method for the quantification of eugenol and gallic acid in clove. The method was validated for precision, repeatability and accuracy. The method was found to be precise with RSD of 0.61 and 1.3 (intraday) and 0.96 and 0.24 (interday) for different concentrations of eugenol and gallic acid respectively. Instrumental precision was 0.24 and 0.21 (% CV) for eugenol and gallic acid respectively. Accuracy of the method was checked by conducting recovery study at two different levels for eugenol and gallic acid and the average percentage recoveries were found to be 99.79% and 97.90% respectively. The contents of eugenol and gallic acid in different samples of clove, as estimated by the proposed method, were found to be in the range of 12.9–14.6% and 0.31–0.61% respectively. The proposed HPTLC method for the estimation gallic acid and eugenol was found to be simple, precise, specific, sensitive and accurate and can be used for routine quality control of clove.

Phenolic Profile and Antioxidant,Antibacterial, and Antiproliferative Activity of Juglans regia L. Male Flowers

Juglans regia L., walnut, is a large, long-living tree, cultivated in temperate climates around the world. It is highly appreciated for its nutritional kernels and high-quality timber. Its barks, leaves, and husk are used as dyes and in folk medicine as herbal remedies for several diseases. From a biological and chemical standpoint, relatively little is known about the male flowers of the tree. Therefore, the aim of the study was to evaluate the phenolic profile as well as in vitro antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antiproliferative activity of male Juglans regia L. flowers. Phenolic content was determined by UPLC/PDA/MS/MS analyses; antioxidant activity was assessed by five different methods; antimicrobial activity was evaluated against the six most common pathogenic strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and antiproliferative properties were assessed against six cell lines. Most of the analyses carried out in this study were performed for the first time for this raw material. J. regia flower extract was characterized by a strong ability to scavenge DPPH˙ free radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and chelating metal ions. Among the examined bacterial strains and neoplastic lines, the strongest antimicrobial activity was shown against S. aureus, L. monocytogenes, and B. cereus, and cytotoxic activity against breast cancer, glioblastoma, and astrocytoma cells. Male J. regia flowers have also been found to be a rich source of phenolic compounds. The content of polyphenols in the extract was 4369.73 mg/100 g d.w., and 24 compounds from the group of flavonoids, phenolic acids, and juglunosides were identified. Additionally, a strong correlation between the content of polyphenols and the antioxidant capacity and cytotoxic activity was observed. This is why the tested J. regia flowers are an excellent source of effective natural antioxidant, antibacterial, and chemopreventive compounds that have potential to be used in the pharmaceutical or food industries.
